Comprehension Plus

We use a reading book series entitled Comprehension Plus which defines the nature of the article in this post.  Do we really want students to just understand the text they are reading or should we want more?  In this article, Janice Silva examines a historical piece from an historian's point of view, not as student reader who understands text after reading it.  Yes, I believe we need more and from what I hear from our Title I teachers, some students are going beyond mere comprehension.
